Truck Terminals as a Service

Truck Terminals as a Service

Outpost enables you to expand your fleet operations without capital investment or long-term inflexible leases.

Your fleet needs to be wherever your freight contracts take you. But securing terminal real estate in prime locations is expensive and inefficient. Buying and leasing require heavy capital investment, operational burden, and inflexible long-term commitments.

Outpost eliminates these challenges with a nationwide network of secure terminals with cross-docks, warehouse space, offices, and maintenance facilities, all powered by gate automation and available without long-term commitments. Expand into new markets without the capital burden while improving security and visibility across your network.

Office Space

Outpost’s on-yard office spaces are designed for dispatch teams, administrative staff, and fleet managers to operate more efficiently. Whether you’re running a regional dispatch hub or coordinating driver schedules, our offices provide a ready-to-use workspace with flexible leasing options. Located in key logistics hubs, these spaces help reduce communication delays and keep your team close to your equipment and drivers. Our facilities include reliable internet, essential utilities, and secure access to support daily operations.

Cross-Docking

Outpost terminals offer cross-docking infrastructure to help you move freight faster and cut down on dwell time. Whether you’re repositioning loads, running drop-and-hook operations, or transloading freight for last-mile delivery, our facilities are designed for efficiency. With 24/7 secure access, flexible space, and support for both short-haul and long-haul transfers, our cross-docks make it easy to keep your freight moving.

Maintenance Facilities

Keep your fleet moving and avoid costly downtime with Outpost’s on-site maintenance facilities. We offer space for inspections, light repairs, preventative maintenance, and red-tag management, either through your own staff or partnered local service providers. With access to secure parking and office space, our maintenance facilities streamline your fleet’s upkeep while reducing out-of-service time and offsite delays.

C-TPAT Border Inspections

Outpost offers on-site vehicle and cargo inspections, including CTPAT-certified border inspections at select yards near border crossings. Our inspection facilities help you meet compliance standards while ensuring faster turnaround for cross-border and regional freight. Equipped with secure access and real-time monitoring, these facilities streamline the inspection process, reduce delays, and enhance safety for both drivers and cargo.

Warehouse Space

Select Outpost properties can be used for temporary or long-term warehousing to store freight, equipment, or supplies. Our warehouse spaces provide a flexible solution for companies needing additional storage capacity near key routes or customer locations. With secure access and customizable layouts, these spaces are ideal for overflow inventory, short-term staging, or customer-specific projects that require quick, local storage.

Drop Yard Acreage

Outpost provides secure yard space for drop-and-hook operations, trailer staging, and truck parking. Whether you need short-term capacity during peak season or a longer-term footprint in a strategic market, we size the space to fit your needs. Our locations are fenced, well-lit, and monitored 24/7 with gate automation to track every entry and exit. Scale your drop yard operations without the capital cost or property management burden.

Gate Technology that Cuts Costs by 70%

Most terminals still rely on expensive, manual gate processes that slow operations and expose fleets to security risk. Outpost terminals come equipped with our proprietary gate automation technology. We use computer vision, AI, and voice agents to streamline check-ins, reduce labor costs, and enhance security. You get higher throughput, auditable records of every ingate and outgate, and better visibility across your fleet.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Outpost differ from traditional yard leasing or buying?

Outpost gives you immediate access to terminal infrastructure including cross-docks, offices, maintenance facilities, and warehouse space without the burden of capital expense and inflexible long-term leases. We provide turnkey terminals as a service with flexible leasing terms.

What if we already own or lease terminals? Can we still benefit from Outpost?

Yes. Many large fleets use Outpost to extend their footprint in markets where they don’t want to commit long term or where they need overflow capacity. You can spin up new locations quickly and cost-effectively without tying up real estate capital or waiting for permits and buildouts.

How long are your commitments?

We offer flexible term length tailored to the needs of your business. There’s also no requirement to take down an entire property. If your operations require additional infrastructure, you can lease individual buildings on the property, such as office space, warehousing, or maintenance bays. And whether you need space for 5 trailers or 50, we’ll work with you to size the footprint and commitment to match your fleet’s needs.

What’s included with your gate automation? Do we have to install anything?

Our gate automation is built into each property with no setup required. It uses cameras, computer vision, and voice agents to check in drivers, inspect trailers, and log activity automatically. You get full visibility and reporting without adding staff or hardware.

Can we use Outpost terminals as drop yards only?

Absolutely. Many fleets use Outpost for drop-and-hook operations, trailer staging, or repositioning equipment. You only pay for the space and services you use.
